She was granted an English degree and had her teaching certificate withheld. Also it appears more related to the 'Drunken Pirate'caption which accompanied the picture rather than the picture itself.
I think what SUN really mean by compensate is that they are growing concerned with the amount of influence IBM now wields with several Java based OSS projects and a looking for a way to gain some more control themselves.
Don't sell yourself so short. Demand accomodation in a top hotel and a steady stream of cocaine and high class hookers. The response at your next interview when they ask what your previous salary was should be hilarious.
Basically, kill social interaction. How is that NOT possible in a virtual world
So no actual consequence as I said earlier and nothing to stop the offender taking the 15 seconds it takes to create another online identity. Devastating, just devastating, no wonder everyone is so polite online.
Exactly my point. Please explain how someone getting annoyed in a game relates to someone smacking you in the face with real pain and blood/teeth loss for you.
I have posted previously about my disappointment and the mainstream media 'manipulation' of these debates. I dont really see what the difference is here. It will probably just degenerate into 'we'can do it better or cheaper with the clips than 'they can'' and does really bode well for political discourse.
Would Brazil be in this position if they had provided more health care and better education to their citizens. How much would a few million condoms have cost them compared what the pharmcos charge?
I doubt this has a whole lot to do with humanity. The Brazillian economy is fucked, they are up to their eyeballs in debt, so much so they are struggling to even make the interest repayments. They have a large AIDS population and simply cant afford the drugs. Doing this gives them a cheap PR win, and I suppose lets them thumb their noses at the world a bit given the situation they now find themselves again. If I recall correctly they did something similar several years ago when they turned round to the IMF and told them to re-adjust Brazils debt or they would deliberately default on the lot, not that it seems to have benefited them greatly at this point.
Thanks for mentioning Vista a couple of times in your post. We hear in the Vista marketing team really appreciate it when Vista gets a mention. I inspires us in the Vista family to really work to make Vista the best Vista that it can be.
Thanks again for mentioning Vista. Now I'm off to sit on my balcony with a cold beer and enjoy the Vista.
Why does everyone seemingly accept any kind of illegal action as long as it can somehow be called the "fight against terror"? Why do people accept this kind of BS from the people who allegedly work FOR them?
Its because in the last century these tactics have been shown to be incredibly effective in achieving almost total control over the populace. Stalin and Hitler showed you could invent some fictious and terrible enemy to coerce the population into allowing you to create massive internal surveillance systems, gulags for dissenters, private armies out side the military, to suppress 'treasonous' dissent, to control the media, and by the time the duplicity was realised, they had so much power it was impossible to challenge them.
The US has been at this for years albeit in a milder form than recent times. For example Mr Rumsfeld has been a leading fear mongering hysteric re the evil Soviets who were gagging to kill us all with their 'bomber gap' with which they planned to carpet bomb the US, then it was a 'missile gap' with which they planned to nuke the US into the stone, then multitudes of tanks that were going to steamroller through Europe etc. End result was the US had vastly more bombers and missiles than the Soviets, so there actually was a gap, just not the one you were led to believe.
Mr Rumsfeld and his fellow hawks were clearly resourceful men because despite the evil terror of the Soviet Union rather inconveniently collapsing on them they quickly recovered the situstion with the vast global terror network that is Al Quaida. Unfortunately with the ascention of Al Quaida to public enemy no 1 there also seems to be a greater willingness to remove civil rights and liberties.
Raymond has touched on the complexity of their software before and noted that oftentimes the complexity was not acually a product of the fuctionality but due to fixes, patches and additions to the code over time. To his credit he has in the past admitted that issues similar to this one were introduced because the core problem ie loading faulty shell extensions was not addressed directly for reasons of time/money/too scared to touch it/whatever and the hacks and workarounds only served to pointlessly bloat the complexity of the whole system. It's also worth noting that this complexity creep was not entirely due to MS. They had 10s of millions users with god knows how many applications which the MS dev teams struggled to support with backwards compatability etc. Raymond has admitted in the past that specific checks were put in the OS for certain applications to keep them functioning. Nice if you are a third party developer but just asking for trouble for your OS.
Put a toad in the furnace and then ignite it. If the toad does not jump out then clearly the furnace is not heating quickly enough. For day to day management use a dragon. They are very good with high temperatures and will be able to help out with your energy bills by giving your furnace the odd blast. One safety tip with the dragon though is that if your name is George its probably best not to let the dragon know that.

Oh. Care to step outside and repeat that?

It takes ages and it's a PITA.
I hereby announce I am giving up my obsession with firewalls and reverting to my earlier obsession with Halle Berry.
Not to mention the way kids are struggling with the three ars in school today.

15 years in Thai slammer looking after the convicted servers.....bummer
Just to pass the time you understand.
No I said no 'actual consequence'. Think about that for a minute and you will realize how silly your comment is.
Exactly my point. Please explain how someone getting annoyed in a game relates to someone smacking you in the face with real pain and blood/teeth loss for you.
Can you please stop whinging about people whinging about people whinging about slashdot on slashdot. It's just too much.
you can break all these rules with impunity because there is no real consequence, unlike in actual life.

I keep a fleet of submarines specially for this purpose.
And then took all my karma.

How else do you think Al Gore was able to design all the tubes that several of the internets run on!
